📣 Warm-Up & Arena Etiquette Reminder 🐴

To help keep our lessons running safely and smoothly, please follow the guidelines below when entering and riding in the arena:

✅ Enter to the left of the school

🐎 Stay in walk on the right rein until your instructor is ready to begin

↔ Pass left shoulder to left shoulder when meeting another rider

🏇 Give way to the faster pace – canter takes priority over trot, trot over walk

🌀 Lateral work has right of way

⬅ Circle off the track and don’t cut through anyone’s circle

🚶‍♀ Keep 2 horse lengths between you and the horse in front

↔ Leave at least one horse’s distance when passing another rider

🎯 Adjust tack or chat in the middle of the arena, not on the track

This helps give everyone time to settle their horses calmly, prevents congestion in the arena, and ensures the instructor can start the lesson safely and on time.
